Knitting pattern for striped sweaters for women.

Comfy simple striped sweater in soft Hip Wool. Knit from the bottom up with 1 strand of Hip Wool. First in the round until you make sleeve openings on each side. Then divide the sweater into 2 parts – front and back piece, which are knitted back and forth to the specified length. The front piece is made with a neckline. The sleeves are knitted from the top down by knitting stitches into the sleeve opening.

The sweater has a slightly “boxy” shape with a roomy fit and wide sleeves, which suits this type of sweater well. Normal length body. You also need a needle for thread attachment, scissors, measuring tape.

FIT

The sweater can be roomy, about + 15-20 cm range of motion. This means that you choose a size that is + 15-20 cm more than what you yourself measure across the chest (or the widest point of the upper body). Feel free to measure the width of a sweater you already have and like the fit. For example, if your chest is 94 cm around, size M will fit nicely (range of motion of 17 cm). Feel free to choose a more oversized or a slightly tighter fit, when it comes to fit, it is of course your personal preferences that count most.
